I arrived Cebu yesterday, Jan 26. My flight was 3pm mnl-ceb. Finally, nakasakay na din ako sa boeing 747, dream come true, hehe. I've been wanting to ride on that plane, it is a plane with an upper deck and it only travels mnl-ceb vise versa. I got a good seat coz my friend from PAL, clavel gave me the front seat. I had a nice view coz infront was the first class seats. I got a good view of Dingdong Dantes and Karylle, haha. Nakakatawa coz pinagkaguluhan sila sa centennial, ang mga ka cheapan nga naman, picture and autograph to the max ang mga fans. I think they had a show here in Cebu. In fairness celebrity skin sila talaga. Hehehe
Anyways, as soon as i arrived here, my friend clavel was waiting for me. I bought her pasalubong krispy kreme, coz unfortunately wala pa yun dito sa Cebu. We went home together, i unpacked some of my stuff then we headed to SM for dinner.
Today, Sunday, i heard mass and went to the supermarket after. As im writing this entry, im super pagod coz kakalinis ko lang ng bahay ko. Good thing pad lang to so konti lang ang nilinis ko. Super dusty and i have to clean it to the max. I scrubbed the floor, door, the toilet bowl, etc etc. I was gone for 42 days so you can just imagine how dirty my crib is, after 2 hrs, natapos din. Im kinda proud of myself coz i know na how to do house chores, anyways wala naman talaga akong choice but to clean it myself. Im flying back manila this march to spend holy week, as for now, back to reality, travel galore and work work work!!!
Gtg, need to take a bath :-)

my friends were telling me that i am not used to manila weather and pollution anymore that's why i have a flu for 3 days now. im still in manila and ive been here since december 14. im supposed to leave today for cebu, but have to reschedule it for wednesday next week coz i have some important things to do here in the head office. part of me wanted to go back to cebu, another part of me wanted to stay here. i am happy when i am in the office. spending time with May and Rhea and my other office mates are so much fun. iniisip ko na lang na in 5months i will be back again :-)
yesterday i met up with georgie. we had coffee at starbucks dela rosa. was surprised to see that she lost weight...oh well, matagal na syang payat pero mas pumayat pa sya. the more i felt bad coz ang taba taba ko now. but she also said that i look better now than before, oh well. i still wanted to lose 10 more pounds.
so far the start of my year was doing fine. i feel that there are a lot of good things that's going to happen to me this year. i will keep you posted. :-)

I've been dying to get out of Manila so I was happy to find out that i have 1 week training in Tacloban (jan7-11)...My flight to tacloban was sunday jan 6. I arrived Tacloban 3pm...Finally im alone again, hehe. Jan 7, Monday was the start of the training, only to find out that i've to cancel the session coz we didnt meet the minimum number of participants, damn! To make the long story short, as im writing this entry, im back in manila, again. My boss decided to finish the 1 day training and have it rescheduled some other time. So today i arrived manila around 9am, hay, ang bilis ng pangyayari...
It's not that i dont like it here, it's just that i miss being on my own. I also wanted to go back to Cebu coz i have to clean my "crib"...medyo lang mag 1 month na akong wala don no...I cant go back yet, I still have to attend a conference in shangrila makati jan 14-16...so it means, 2 weeks pa ako dito...nye!
Bebs...see you weekend, sana saturday! :-)

...2007
2007 has finally end. Looking back, I would have to say that it has been one hell of a roller coaster ride for me. And I mean in all aspects, hehe. But overall it was great. Let me tell you what are the exciting moments that happened in my life for the year 2007.
January—I can still remember that I was studying so hard then because of the new program that I have to conduct. Feeling ko I was back in school. Kung iispin ko nga, mas serious pa ata akong mag aral now that I am working compared to when I was still in college. But it was fun. My hard work paid off. Yahoo.
February—my colleagues and I went to Baguio. That was actually the 1st time all of us went out of town. Looking back, nakakapagod ginawa namen coz we left after office hours and arrived Baguio 3 am. But the overall experience was exciting. After a long time, I got drunk again. There were too much drama at that time pero ok lnag kasi bonding kaming lahat. And when I say lahat even the AVP of training was there, super cool and saya. Sana maulit muli...
March – training galore sa Manila.
April – got our 14th month and performance bonus. Happy naman coz I got good ratings. There was salary increase too.
Another exciting event happened was when I went to Bacolod for training, my last night there, while I was in a club with my good friend, Maritoni, I met my ex-bf Emil…yoohoo!!! Funny coz during that night, Maritoni and I find him kadiri, kasi naman no lasing. Pero because he was very persistent, I begun to like him na din. (high school?hehe)
May – the big bosses of training talked to me regarding an offer of trainer’s localization. This is actually the start of my “new life”
Had a vacation in Boracay with friends, weng was one of them, she's my balikbayan friend from U.K. Believe it or not that's my 1st time in Bora, grabe i fell inlove with the place, super cool. Im going back there...pwamis.
Travelled the whole part of Negros Occidental with my ex-bf Emil with his sister and brother in law. Dun ko lang nalaman that Negros is such a nice place. Would love to travel Negros again...
June – one of the biggest decisions I ever made in my entire life is to finally accept the offer of trainer’s localization. I made a decision to be relocated in Cebu for a year. This is one proof how serious and passionate I am with my work. I have to be away from my family and friends and learn to live on my own. This is a challenge for me since I grew up with helpers who always do stuff for me. I finally said yes, coz i know whatever my decision is would surely help me become a better person, and it actually did.
July – was so homesick, dying to be back in Manila.
August – still homesick, already applying from one company to another, just to go back home.
September – Emil and I broke up, bilis no? hahaha
October – I felt I was somehow adjusting to my new life in Cebu. That’s good news!
November – so adjusted already in my new life in Cebu that when I am back in manila, I get pissed because of heavy traffic, hindi na ata ako sanay. Or should I say im beginning to be a “probinsyana”, hehehe.
December – Christmas mode! Finally I get to go home and be with my family. I’m trying to enjoy every single minute of my time with my loved ones because I know when January comes, I’ve to face reality, that I still have 5 more months to stay in Cebu. But come to think of it, 5 months is short. I have to make a decision whether I am going back to Manila or finally staying in Cebu, for good. I will let you know. Hehehe
My colleagues and I also had overnight stay in tagaytay for 3 reasons: Angel’s despedida because he is leaving for the states, lucky guy coz he got a job in new jersey, hay I envy him. 2nd reason is the 3 most “missed trainers” are back, that includes me, Cary and Mic and 3rd reason is it’s Christmas time, hehe. It was fun. Kinda bitin but it was really fun. The place wasn’t that good though but puede na din, no choice J
Overall, I would have to say that Year 2007 was exciting, adventurous and a blessed year for me. There were so many trials but I am proud to say that I was able to handle them all. Thank God! I always believe in the power of praying. I lost a very close friend but I know everything happens for a reason. All I can say is wherever I am right now, whatever I have achieved, I am so grateful to God. I am happy being with the people I loved the most. I am happy with my blossoming career and I know that there will be more opportunities for me come 2008 (positive thinking). I can feel that there will be a “love life” for me early next year, hahaha, sana. For year 2008 I am praying for good health for my friends most especially for my family. I am going to start the year right, diba Det?! That includes strict diet again, coz june-december 2007, I gained freakin 15lbs (kamusta naman yun)…Lastly, I would really have to be more responsible when it comes to my expenses. That’s for sure. Cheers to all! Happy New Year!
